Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

[tdanella25]

EXPLANATION OF THE ISSUE

New Version of Wordpress Version 6.6.1 Migrated the site to new host and updated wordpress to the latest version and tried to activate the plugins which all worked except this one.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE

Install wordpress and this plugin and try and activate it.

BEHAVIOR THAT I EXPECTED

Critical Error or Fatal Error

BEHAVIOR THAT I OBSERVED

The error says it is s2members pro but it is the Select s2Member Framework plugin that will not activate

The error message you're seeing indicates a problem in the s2Member Pro plugin, specifically in the syscon.inc.php file at line 137. The issue is related to the usage of the sprintf() function, where it encounters an unknown format specifier ";".

Error being thrown:
Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: Unknown format specifier ";" in /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/src/includes/syscon.inc.php:137 Stack trace: #0 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/src/includes/syscon.inc.php(137): sprintf() #1 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(324): ws_plugin__s2member_pro_default_options() #2 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-includes/plugin.php(205): WP_Hook->apply_filters() #3 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-content/plugins/s2member/src/includes/syscon.inc.php(356): apply_filters() #4 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-content/plugins/s2member/s2member.php(155): ws_plugin__s2member_configure_options_and_their_defaults() #5 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-admin/includes/plugin.php(2387): include_once('...') #6 /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-admin/plugins.php(194): plugin_sandbox_scrape() #7 {main} thrown in /usr/local/lsws/deprogrammingseries.com/html/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/src/includes/syscon.inc.php on line 137

Hi,
Same issue here, test done with basic theme and only s2member framework 240325
unable to delete from wp dashboard
reinstall done
fatal error upon activation

[clavaque]

Thanks @tdanella25 for the detailed report!

That's an old issue from a couple years ago that has already been fixed. Please try updating s2Member Pro to a more recent release and see if you still have the problem.

I look forward to your update. :)

@pascalmoise Could you give me more details, please? Like the exact error message, the s2Member Pro version if you're using it, and any other details that could help me understand/reproduce your problem.

Thanks! :)
